Such a great environment, straight out of tropical Cuban or South Florida. Food was traditional Cuban with a few surprises. Service was kinda slow but my wife, from Miami, was so in awe of the decor that we spent the extra time waiting, just gawking at the place.

I really enjoy coming here for the ambiance and great service. It is always fun and so energetic. My family and I enjoy coming here to celebrate our birthdays. The only thing that I suggest is the portions of the food, I feel like they are very small for the price. The bean portions come in a very small cup and the rice is a very very small portion. Overall, if you are looing for delicious food, a great ambiance and great service. You must try this place!

Asked for standard indoor seating and said its for a special occasion and they did not reserve a nice spot but rather a spot on the corner of a squished table. We had to get our own water and server couldn’t even take a photo and I had to go outside to ask??? Hit or miss…beware

What a fantastic brunch experience at Habana! Came here with a group of 5 and we were all blown away. The buffet had so many delicious options — from fresh seafood to tasty Cuban dishes and decadent desserts. Big thanks to Emmanuel R. for his stellar service. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we never wanted for anything. Also want to highlight Milton, the manager, for stopping by to check on us and making us feel so welcome. All around amazing food, great value, and a lively atmosphere. Can’t wait to come back!

I have always loved Habana... the original one is at the anti-mall in Costa Mesa, which is the only one that I have been to previously. This one opened right before the pandemic and I finally made it here!! It is absolutely huge and absolutely stunning. The interiors are amazing the music and the waitstaff outfits make you really feel like you've gone to Havana! Tonight we had Ruby as our waitress, and she was exceptional! We had a few appetizers along with a picture of sangria, and then individual dinners which I will post photos of below. We started with Chicken Empanadas, ( which were so good. We ordered two orders for four people), Croquettes de Jamón. For dinner we tried the Ceviche Tropical with French Fries, Paella a La Habana with Lobster Tails ( so vague service for one was plenty for the two of us) and Ropa Vieja. All of our entrées were delicious! I would say come hungry because the portions are large and the food very filling. It is such a sensory experience. I can't wait to go back!
